I so badly want to support and pay for good media, believe it’s v important - why do they make it impossible

lynnok.bsky.social•9 days ago

Totally agree.
It's hard.
The only one I financially support is @thejournal.ie
But The Ditch are doing good investigative work as are @bylinetimes.bsky.social in the UK, I did subscribe to them for a year or two.

But he didn't. He ran on woke. Ireland would be very sorry if they let the right take over. They will raid your treasury for giveaways to the rich while you die from lack of common medications. We have people in the US who ration their insulin. He just expanded dental care. Another woke idea.

Wild how our society created the job of opinion columnist where you can only succeed by being the dumbest, most arrogant fucker possible.

daithibhard.bsky.social•9 days ago

I really hate the “I can’t believe it’s not the Sindo” bent the Irish Times has taken.

hmcevansoneya.bsky.social•9 days ago

They've had terrible opinion writers for a long time (what's Mark Paul at these days?) but yeah definitely overshadowed by the Indo, though they at least have Gene Kerrigan

Be careful what you wish for...

No comment on why Bobby Sands didn't get a plaque...

Oh nooooo

look at my political analysts dawg we are never resisting the rise of fascism

crowtango.bsky.social•9 days ago

Anxiously betting on whether I can finish writing 'Night of the Long Niamhs' about AI hallucinations of national mythology before Ireland decides to go full fash.

Mark Carney, huh? https://www.thisismoney.co.uk/money/comment/article-4683148/CITY-DIARY-Carney-s-gay-pride-come-fall.html

Just pathetic.

I want to slap our leader's name out of his mouth but I'll wait until you all finish rolling him

mmch.bsky.social•9 days ago

Dear God. Collins has been like this for years and yet somehow, I’m still surprised.

bernardoverda.bsky.social•9 days ago

Is Stephen Collins the pseudonym for a hallucinating AI?

(Mark Carney was the opponent of the anti-woke candidate... And running as the Liberal Party leader.)

cameronstone.bsky.social•9 days ago

We were literally voting against the anti-woke guy.

sobekhotep97.bsky.social•9 days ago

These people were the same ones shrieking about the fact that Carney couldn’t win because his kid is non-binary

ChatGPT Prompt: 'Write me an article for a declining national broadsheet about the Canadian election being about an anti-woke agenda. Please leave em dashes out of the text.'

Another stressful day in the opinion column mines.

llightfoot.bsky.social•9 days ago

Its like he wrote this for poilievre, and just ctrl+f changed it

siobhanmcelduff.bsky.social•8 days ago

This is probably what occurred. They're not hard working as a rule in the Irish Times opinion writing side of things.

kevvikevs.bsky.social•9 days ago

At least McRedmond is a standard issue London hack, you know what you're getting there. Collins just hallucinates things that haven't happened and gets mad about them

andycyclesdublin.bsky.social•9 days ago

Is Mark Carneys rejected woke agenda in the room with us now?

soozbz.bsky.social•9 days ago

Uuugh. As a Canadian living in Ireland part of me really wants to read this to find out how TF he justified this absurd conclusion, because it's interesting (if horrifying) to see how Cdn politics gets contorted in other places. But the rest of me really doesn't want to reward this with clicks.

dubdad.bsky.social•9 days ago

I wouldn't waste your time.
